Subject: [PATCH RESEND] perf data: close all files in close_dir

When using perf report in directory mode, the first file is not closed on
exit, causing a memory leak.
The problem is caused by the iterating variable never reaching 0.

Hi Arnaldo, 

I think this patch might have gone lost in the mailbox, submerged by
other mails.
I'll take advantage of the resend to add the missing 'Fixes:' tag.

I didn't flag this as v2 since it contains no logical change, let me
know if doing so would've been better.

Changes from first send: 
 - collected ack from Namhyung
 - added Fixes: tag

Thanks,
Riccardo
